SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES HAVING MODULATED NANOWIRE COUNTS

摘要

Semiconductor devices having modulated nanowire counts and methods to form such devices are described. For example, a semiconductor structure includes a first semiconductor device having a plurality of nanowires disposed above a substrate and stacked in a first vertical plane with a first uppermost nanowire. A second semiconductor device has one or more nanowires disposed above the substrate and stacked in a second vertical plane with a second uppermost nanowire. The second semiconductor device includes one or more fewer nanowires than the first semiconductor device. The first and second uppermost nanowires are disposed in a same plane orthogonal to the first and second vertical planes.
